What is the best way to sterilize these after using for wet cupping? Thanks in advance!

I would clean them with rubbing alcohol . Either wipe them down or let them soak in a big pot with an alcohol / water solution . I would have a cup connected to the actual pump and pump up the water/ alcohol solution to clean the gun portion of it. Hope this helps :)

I use a 10% bleach and water solution for the initial clean and between every second keg for sterilization. Soak for 15 minutes, rinse well, then allow to dry by hanging.

I've heard that people keep it in the fridge. You can also get a few sets of the tubes and cups so you have some spares. I would not sterilize but just wash after use and sterilize every couple days. I had no issues.

I have been scouring the internet for an answer to this very same question. The only idea that I have comeup with is - number 1 - take them to the cleaners and have them steam them, or in the alternative, buy a steamer and do it yourself. Let me know if you got any other answers. I went on youtube for a video also and did not find anything to help. Miele does nothing to help. embry7808@yahoo.com

I just soak them in hot soapy water and use a bottle brush if necessary. Rinse them well and let them air dry.

I used to wash them with a mild soap and either use microwavable sterilizing bags or my aventi sterilizer.

Ideally they are rinsed right after use. I found that just running water through them isn't really sufficient though, so blowing air through them repeatedly to force out the extra is helpful. If it's already dry, try soaking the tips in water or vinegar to soften and break up the henna first.

Sure, probably boiling them would do it, also washing really well with hot soapy water and a pipe cleaner would do it.

Take apart at every wash-after each use. Sterilize, same frequency as any other nipple. We did daily at first...But as our child got older we sterilized less frequently.

You use dry heat sterilization pouches and we can get them for you, they have indicator strips built in to confirm sterilization. thanks

Flush them with warm water before the milk dries. I use a 100ml syringe on one end with the other end in a pail, then repeatedly flush the tube. Afterwards I flush with clean water and let them dry.

Yes. The instruction leaflet says "suitable for all forms of sterilization" and "wash in warm soapy water and rinse in clean water or use a dishwasher. "

No, I didn't sterilized it. I wash is with soap warm water. And I rinsed it with boiling hot water.

Julie, What i did for myself and members of my family was pretty easy. I just heated up some water(certainly not boiling), and when they bacamevery soft I put them in my mouth and molded them. Basically I placed them on my upper teeth, and then sucked until they were good and snug and molded to my teeth. Then I waited a minute, took them out gently and placed them in cold, cold cold, water. They came out perfect for myself and others. Let me know if you have any more questions and I'll certainly help if I can. Happy New Year!! Pete G

I never boil. I just wash and dry them 8-9 times and that does the trick. I use Charlie's Soap.

Detach all the tubes except for the plunger , I use Vinegar and a drop or two of dawn dish soap. Then apply inside plunger, rinse with warm or hot water and flush out. Vinegar helps with residue, and Dawn dish soap helps with cleaning. Other then that, I have also used what the vets use to sterilize their equipment. ( Can't remember the name of it ) I'm sure if you ask you vet, they can tell you what to use. Hope this helps.
